Hello, it's Lauren here. I've just come back from the best time in Tennessee. Let me tell you all about it and what me and my Mam got up too!
We hired a car for a few days to get us around the Smokey Mountains and get us to Nashville!
First stop on my trip was Dollywood!
There was so much to see and do! We got to see some of her fabulous wigs, clothes and the tour bus she used from 1994 - 2009. We did go on some rides and tried the famous cinnamon bread! 😋
Next was our visit to Nashville. Before we dropped the car off and went to the hotel in Downtown, we went to see The Bluebird Café. I'm a Taylor Swift fan so I wanted to see where she started before she started selling out Wembley Stadium! Then we went down Broadway. I got some cowboy boots and a hat! The bars were all so busy and fun! We visited Bon Jovi, Morgan Wallen, Kid Rock, Post Malone and Lainey Wilson's bar's. My favourite was Lainey Wilson or Bon Jovi's bar! Each bar had so many different floors and live music on all day, the vibes were so good! The following day, we went to White Limozeen for brunch. We asked if we could sit outside as it was sunny and hot! Then after there, we headed to the Country Music Hall of Fame which took you through the years and had lots of different artist to see and read about! Then back to Broadway for some drinks and food!
Then finally, we headed to Memphis. Visiting Gracelands was incredible. Being able to see all of Elvis Presley's cars, planes, clothes, his home was such an amazing experience. This was on my Mam's bucket list and I'd always said I'd take her one day, we both loved every minute of it. We spent the whole day there and could of stayed even longer!
We had such a brilliant holiday from start to finish and would do it all over again but I had to be home to see Harry Styles and tell you all about my trip!
